Nothing like finishing a work out on the airdynes.  Stephanie andd Cassidy were giving it today.  This was Cassidy’s first day at ICG, and their last round of Tabata on the airdynes.  

The first visit is always free here at ICG, just give us a buzz so we can schedule you in for an orientation. Thanks for giving us a try Cassidy, we hope to see more of your effort here.

Found yourself looking like this lately after your workouts?  Ask yourself if you really are giving it all you got.

Training with Coach Rip

After getting a nasty bug and taking most of last week off, Cathy rallied hard for her long awaited barbell certification.  She was surrounded by 200-300 pound men (see 70′s Big for examples) and heavy barbells as she learned how to perform and coach the old school lifts; deadlift, press, bench press, squats and cleans.   The highlight of the weekend was the opportunity to learn from renowned strength training coach, Mark Rippetoe.  The weekend was packed with 19 hours of intense instruction and some of the funniest jokes ever told.  Remember what Coach Rippetoe says “Only ****ies don’t squat”.

She returned home with sore hamstrings and renewed excitement, anxious to share with the ICG athletes. So be ready folks to go to the corner and pick up and put down some barbells. . . .

What a day!  It’s been snowing and you’ve seen it blanket the local hills. If you haven’t been up to the mountains lately, (like me)  the white stuff is starting to stack up.  We took the skis for a walk at Stevens Pass on Sunday and got our first taste of the white stuff. There is easily 4 feet of snow on the ground.  Thanks to Donni for capturing this shot on her iphone.
